Urghh... do_*numa_page() is two near identical functions.. is there
really no sane way to de-duplicate at least some of that?


Agree. I will explore and will take that as a separate TODO.


Did spend some time to look at if there is a better way of merging these
two.
code looks similar as you noted, with very subtle changes (pte vs pmd
and difference in unlock).
But I thought only some part of the code can be changed easily, but changing whole code did not look to be worth as of now.
(unless we come up with better idea)

This is the only comment perhaps not addressed rightly I feel :(

Thanks
